Wow how did I miss that!!! OKC is so unfair winning a chip and then having a guy like Topic coming in…but yes, 100% on board to watch Topic in a week or so!
1) The Rockets -- getting KD (and just as importantly shipping shot-chucker Jalen Green the hell out of town), stealing Dorian Finney-Smith, re-signing basically all their free agents (even the end-of-bench guys), AND picking up Clint Capela to be the THIRD-STRING center? We all just THOUGHT last year's team was deep. Good Lord.
2) Good job for the Bucks getting Myles Turner as basically a younger, better replacement for Brook Lopez -- he should fit right on that team. Too bad for the Pacers and Dame Lillard, though.
3) Speaking of Brook Lopez, good job for him signing on to be Ivica Zubac's backup on the Clippers. At this point in his career, he's not a starter anymore, but being able to play backup minutes, protect the rim when Zubac sits, and get wide-open threes off of Harden and Leonard should be just the ticket for him in his basketball dotage.
No shoutout for Nikola Topic finally suiting up over the summer?
